Video Summary:
"This documentary shows where the word Ska originate with contributions from Prince Buster, Norma Dodd, Dizzie Moore, Sonny Bradshaw + more. Ska music hit london in 1964, Ska was big among the music of the time in london, but never promoted abroad, there were artist like Millie Small, Prince Buster, Derrick Morgan and many others hitting the charts. Even the group Madness got their name from one of Prince Buster records. Mostly at the time the ska music was played in blues dances and house parties.

reggae historianCLEKTRONIK (2 months ago) Very nice, pity they didn't source the many flyers and posters advertising ska dances that were all over Trench Town and Kingston prior to 1964.They all contained the written word 'ska'.
